What's a hippocrate? Is it like a hippopotamus-shaped container or something?

Per Urbandictionary:

Quote:

A container used in the transport of the large animal known as a hippopotamus (not to be confused with an elephant). These hippos are prone to anger and violence, most likely due to their confinement, so the hippocrate must be very sturdy and secure. A variation of the hippocrate appears in the documentary Jurassic Park, but is used to convey velociraptors.

edit: Or maybe he left off the s and meant Hippocrates, famous Greek philosopher. Maybe it was meant as a compliment to Chilly...

This brings more to that report before the season that a big reason of Favre indecison part 897 this year was that he couldn't stand Chilly. It seems like that report was extremely true. Chilly prolly makes Mike Sherman seem like ******* Vince Lombardi.

HA I could see Denver picking up Harvin . Tebow and Harvin just like the good ole days . bwahahaha

The Vikings would never waive him and all 31 other teams would want him. The Bills would be awarded him since they have the worst record. How exactly do they determine if a player was waived or cut and is there a benefit?

Anyways im loving all these reports about the Vikings. They should just absorb the $ hit for firing Childress and alot of problems would be solved already.

Don't quote me on it, but i'm sure the team has the option to either place a guy on waivers or just flat out release him. The benefit of waiving him is that the other team would pick up the already existing contract and the waiving team would not take they cap hit they would have if they just released him (complete stab in the dark here, not entirely sure if that's the case).

I'm pretty sure it's the same thing. People just tend to call it cutting a guy when he either sucks and no one is going to claim him anyway or before the trade deadline comes in (because they would trade him). The whole point of the waiver wire is to give teams like the Bills first dibs on the best players. The entire system wouldn't be of any use if teams could just go around it.
